    Limestone morning glory garland

    i dont recall the brand name, but i got mine years ago from a firm in barre, vermont. igot a lot of goodies from them. finally got smart and began making my own chisels. my fave tool, a five pound bush hammer. it could do a number on soft stone. it was manual not pneumatic.

    sketch critique

    the real basis of all this design is the "spine" or "backbone" as some call it. regardless of the term, the basic scroll element must be near perfect. a casual look at yours shows a tendency towards oval shape. this must be worked on first. jmho
